Rebuild the vboxdrv Module Problem [SOLVED]

I'm running Arch 64bit and recently updated to kernel 2.6.33.2-1
Running the usual vbox module update results in the following error.

Thanks wonder, that did it.
My Arch install has been running so smooth and maintenance free, (or my old age),
I actually had to refer to my notes for this!!!
HMmmm... A good refresher exercise though.

  • Has anyone got the screen flick problem solved?

    as above thanks.
    (i am starting to get irritated of the flicking screen)

    finally got my computer back with more problems than I sent it in with I think. They put in a new logic board, battery, and super drive. I no longer can see my serial number in the about this mac window. also, the battery is loose and sometimes the meter reads 0% and sometimes it will not turn on. I dont know what the deal is. The people that fixed it are in the middle of selling the store so I dont feel like deeling with them for a while until they get all moved. I might just call applecare in the morning or something. I hate this, I am having the worst luck with all my electronics lately.

  • "Cannot Get Mail - The connection to the server failed" problem SOLVED

    Hi All,
    I had been getting a the dreaded "Cannot Get Mail - The connection to the
    server failed" error on my first generation iPhone (firmware version 2.1) when syncing e-mail with an Exchange server. After many troubleshooting steps I found the problem was the size of the inbox (9K messages). After archiving older messages into folders the iPhone could again sync.
    I hope the helps others.
    BMc

    A hidden fix for this is in active directory, under the persons 'advanced' security permissions. You must 'check' the "include inheritable permissions..." at the bottom of the window.
    In Active Directory Users and Computers (be sure that View > Advanced Features is on) , you go into the user account that is having the problem (yours in this case), and right click, Properties.
    Once you’re in the user account properties, click the Security tab, then the Advanced button. “Include inheritable permissions from this object’s parent” needs to be checked. This means top-level permissions from the Exchange server itself are able to propagate down to user account settings.
    We found this out using the Exchange remote connectivity analyzer at https://www.testexchangeconnectivity.com which is a great site (owned by Microsoft) for troubleshooting all sorts of problems with remote Exchange access.

  • Who Said What That Got The "Cold Boot Problems Solved" Thread Deleted?

    Hello, guys.
    I logged in this morning and saw that Falipay??? had posted last in the thread I started called [something like] "Cold Boot Issues Solved And Temps Now Correct". I didn't get a chance to read it, but now that I've logged back in to see what he and others may have       written since my last post, the thread is gone. Not edited...gone.
    What happened since I last posted that got it deleted? It's not that important, but I was curious. Hope it wasn't something I did (I'm not showing any warnings).
    Anyway, thanks.

    Hey, Bas.
    I see now that you reinstated my deleted thread. It should be apparent that my thread was not about me "telling people to buy Asus". Thanks for reconsidering your position.
    And thanks Maxed Out for coming to my defense in the following thread (the "foul" language thing had me confused until I realized you guys were originally discussing something that happened before I ever joined the forum):

  • Virtualbox doesn't compiles "vboxdrv" module for 2.6.24 kernel

    I installed Virtualbox, however I cannot launch any OS because the vboxdrv module doesn't exists for the latest kernel (I found another module for the 2.6.23 kernel); so the GUI says that I should execute this:
    /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
    However that file doesn't exists. I already tried to uninstall virtualbox and reinstalling from pacman, but still no luck.
    What should I do? Is this a bug?
    Thanks in advance.

    I think that's where the confusion  is.  When I got the package from AUR it had:
    -rw-r--r-- 1 ralvez users  217 2008-01-08 15:58 interfaces
    -rw-r--r-- 1 ralvez users 3596 2008-01-20 11:38 PKGBUILD
    -rwx------ 1 ralvez users  174 2007-12-30 04:23 vbox_build_module
    -rw-r--r-- 1 ralvez users 2384 2007-12-30 07:39 vbox.install
    -rw-r--r-- 1 ralvez users 2179 2007-12-30 07:31 vboxnet.patch
    So the patch file is there (in bold text) ... and is not executable is a text file. That's why I'm asking if I have to do something with it to make the whole thing work.
    Since it is just a plain text file if I try to use it as an upgrade patch it fails with error:
    loading package data... error: error while reading package vboxnet.patch: Unrecognized archive format: Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character
    error: failed to add target 'vboxnet.patch'
    So, I'm stuck. I see no way to solve the problem.
    R.
    Edit: On re-reading your post I wonder what package from core are you referring to? I was under the impression that when we use AUR we are "fetching" files not from core but form the AUR source.
    Am I wrong?

  • WiFi connection problem solved

    My intel iMac and MBA had no problem but iPods 3g and 5g did.  I had an old Netgear router connected and sitting next to my Airport Express.  On a hunch I diconnected the Netgear and created a guest network to replace the one on the Netgear.  PROBLEM SOLVED! 
    Evidently our iPods and boarder's iPhone had problems sorting out the signals and finding the right addresses.  Moving the AE to a higher and slightly more central position also helped.
    Jim

    Same here on a Vodafone PocketWiFi 2.
    Tried NetworkManager, wicd, wifi-menu but all have the same issue.
    I recently installed Aptosid on another machine and it has the same problem... It also has kernel version 3.9.
    All the live CDs I've tried work, even an Arch CD from May works, though a current install does not.
    I have no problems connecting to another (wpa2 enterprise) network yet can't on this 3G modem.
    I'm hoping this isn't a permanent issue and perhaps an update very soon will fix this.
    It seems the only way to fix this for now is to use an old version of Linux. I'm currently running a virtual machine only for the purpose of Internet sharing, very annoying.

  • Printer Problem Solved!

    I was happily printing valentines for my grandchildren when all of a sudden my Epson Stylus N11 would not go. The printer icon in the dock bobbled and the message said the printer did not recognize the ink cartridges! Very weird. So I turned the printer off and on and then when I tried to print the message said the computer was unable to communicate with the printer. Restarting my iMac did nothing.
    That was very alarming. Did this mean the printer was malfunctioning? Would I need to go out and buy a new one?
    Then I went to my preferences in my home folder and deleted everything that said printer or Epson. Restarted the computer. Problem solved! The symptoms seemed to indicate a problem with the printer itself, fortunately it was not. I thought this might be useful to share.

    Hello Lars,
    i agree with you that the v2.00 of the UFR2 driver works. I have been recommending it for a while now in this forum.
    However, during my testing I found that it did not always work perfectly on 10.6 and it did not support all the models of Canon iR. So while it is currently working to your iRC4580, it may not be your final solution because it was not designed to work with 10.6 and I just wanted to make others who read your post aware of this.
    Also, because the driver does not officially support 10.6, I was suggesting this as an explanation why Canon
    Europe had not posted the same.
    One final note. For the sake of other readers If the iRC4580 had an imagePASS-H1 print controller attached, rather than using the internal Canon board, then the UFR2 driver cannot be used.
    Hope this clears things up. Like I said, I wasn't disagreeing with you. i was just trying to answer some of the items you raised.

  • Vboxdrv module loading, no /dev/vboxdrv created?

    I am freaking baffled now.
    I've gone through the process of getting the options configured for my custom kernel to get vboxdrv built and loaded successfully, which it does.
    However, despite vboxdrv loading, no /dev/vboxdrv node is created, and virtualbox gives the usual complaint that either the module isn't loaded (it is) or the device is missing (it is).
    I've now tried both virtualbox/virtualbox-sources from the standard repository, and virtualbox-bin from AUR, and I get the same results: "modprobe vboxdrv" appears to successfully load the module, with no messages showing up in dmesg (at all - not even a "module loaded" or anything, but the module shows up in lsmod and can be removed with "modprobe -r").
    I keep seeing references to a mysterious "/etc/init.d/vboxdrv" (or /etc/rc.d/vboxdrv on Arch) but have never actually seen any indication that this script actually exists.
    What in the name of Apshai is going on here?  How do I get the vboxdrv module to actually trigger creation of the missing device node?

    I'm not sure, I'll have to try it and see.  I really don't want to go to a "stock" kernel full-time though.

  • Gaim-Skype ANooying problem- SOLVED

    Hello Everybody,
    I 've just migrated from debian to arch.
    And i am impressed with the speed of arch.
    Very very nice
    I've solved much much greater problems than this curently(k3b,digikam+canon,my scaner, kernel recompile) but this one i cannot solve.
    With debian when i closed the gaim or the skype window, the program won't be terminatedm instead it would be put with a nice icon next to the time in gnome-panel.
    In arch, when i'm closing this programs.. they are terminated... And i have to keep them constantly runing in the "taskbar".
    Is there any solution?
    I've searched in the forum with no resault
    :x

    Well.. Sorry for the disturbence everybody
    Problem solved!
    I've just had to put add a new gnome panel tha shows the notifications icons..
    The gaim and skype programs where not terminated.. there where runing in the background.. i just had no way of bringing them back
    Sorry again,

    make[1]: Leaving directory `/opt/VirtualBox/src/vboxdrv'
    make: *** [all] Error 2
    What is the problem here?

    Also using Virtualbox here and was able to build the modules against the new kernel using this procedure:
    Update kernel 31 --> 32
    install kernel26-headers (seems to me you have the wrong kernel-headers package)
    reboot
    rebuild mkinitcpio (KMS)
    reboot
    rebuild vbox modules
    modprobe them or reboot

  • Lightroom 4 crashes when trying to open the slideshow module. I spent over three hours with both Adobe and Apple tech support and we know it is a permission issue but have not been able to get it solved.  It started with the last upgrade to 10.8

    Back up all data.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
    Triple-click the following line to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    { sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -Rh $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    The first step should give you usable permissions in your home folder. This step will restore special attributes set by OS X on some user folders to protect them from unintended deletion or renaming. You can skip this step if you don't consider that protection to be necessary.
    Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
    When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
    In the Terminal window, type this:
    resetpassword
    That's one word, all lower case, with no spaces. Then press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not  going to reset a password.
    Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.

  • Update to PS CC 2014 all updated ok, opening image in camera raw if I use any sliders/panels it just freezes the raw module. Anyone with similar problem/solution?

    Any solutions/fixes. Photoshop itself it's fully functional apart from the raw opening problem. I did have 8.5rc installed, raw does seem to have updated as I now have PS CC (non 2014 version) fully functional. I have already tried a new download and re install  of 2014 to no avail. Also tried a download of the separate raw module, no fix either.
    Win 8.1 system
    Thanks in advance of any help, was trying to avoid a complete Adobe file wipe.

    Ok, so this is actually a Wacom driver problem( I'm using Intuos 4). If I turn off windows ink in Wacom driver settings then my sliders in camera raw become responsive again, but I lose pressure sensitivity in PS. Just updated Wacom drivers, but no joy. Anybody have a work around/fix?

  • Unable to load the kernel module 'nvidia.ko' [SOLVED]

    if you used the packages from repos, the blacklist is done automatically in nvidia,
    $ pacman -Qo /etc/modprobe.d/nouveau_blacklist.conf
    /etc/modprobe.d/nouveau_blacklist.conf is owned by nvidia 195.36.31-1
    $ cat /etc/modprobe.d/nouveau_blacklist.conf
    blacklist nouveau
    but i guess you just want to mess your system by using unsupported and very bad ways and you are way smarter than the devs if you used that installer
